A 17-year-old boy was killed and his 19-year-old brother was injured when they were stabbed during a fight with another group outside an axe-throwing bar in lower Manhattan on Thanksgiving morning, police and law enforcement sources said.
The fatal stabbing occurred about 1:50 a.m. in Chinatown when the victims got into an altercation outside Live Axe, an ax throwing venue at 96 Lafayette St., police said.
An ax was not used in the incident, sources said.
It is unclear what sparked the argument.
The two teens were stabbed in the torso, the NYPD said.
The 17-year-old was taken to Bellevue Hospital where he was pronounced dead. He was not immediately identified.
The older brother was also taken to Bellevue and is in stable condition, police said.
Part of the block was cordoned off by investigators, according to ABC 7 images.
The investigation is ongoing and no arrests were immediately made Thursday.
